It seems your belief structure has been corrupted by social media and god knows what else. Might I suggest questioning your priors. Carrying this much rage towards Boogeymen can't possibly serve you. The Louvre is a public institution.

I don't really think that is a similar experience, there's something about seeing paintings in the flesh that simply can't be recreated digitally. The texture, the scale, the colours... Maybe one day if VR becomes commoditize

Interesting, I think you have to consider the system as a whole and the impacted stakeholders when considering pricing. In your example, if we consider the environment a stakeholder, and the fact that increased safari impact has a negative

Lol, I mean, if we ignore the experience of all the people who are priced out, then sure? Appreciation of culture shouldn't be reserved for the rich.

People have already given you practical reasons why you're better off keeping it public. To answer your question as to how to get over your fear, you need to ask yourself what you're afraid of. You've mentioned you're wo

If it were that easy, the norm wouldn't be blowing the wealth on gambling or pet sharks lol. If he has successfully assembled a team of bankers that has been as successful as his portfolio suggests, while allowing him to be completely

That's a wonderful place to be. I'm not suggesting that the joy of coding is tied to illusions for everyone, just appears to be more to the story in the case of the author based on his framing.

I agree wholeheartedly. I'm not suggesting there's no value in the act of creation. I think the author has been telling himself that he derived joy from the act of creating, but his comments suggest otherwise, he was deriving joy

Having gone through a bit of a crisis of meaning personally lately, this article resonates deeply. I would encourage the author to look inward and question the beliefs that got them here. I'd argue you didn't lose the joy of codin

He was willing to put some percentage of the 650SOL into the risky project, we don't know how much he intended to invest/gamble, but it seems doubtful to me that he intended to spend his whole wallet on it.

Please reflect on the circumstances in your life that lead you to this belief. In my experience this is a very toxic viewpoint and couldn't be further from the truth. If anything I'd argue that more than ever both women and men ar

Oh got it. I guess the bull run is even more aggressive since the 15th, but it's been on a run for a lot longer than that imo. Thanks for the references, I get what you're saying now!

a few violent individuals? A few? From the videos I've seen it was far more than a few individuals with ill intentions.

I 100% agree, but I was curious so I went through a few pages of hacker news posts, looking for some other scientific studies to see the general sentiment in the comments. Here's one I found on an antidepressants impact on covid hospit

Right? While I think it's important to have open dialogue and discussion in society, the comments here are making me sad. Based on everything we know about American society, the claims this study makes don't seem terribly outlandi

This is true, like anything, you need to build up to it. I lived an entirely sedentary lifestyle for the first 30 years of my life, hated all sport and physical activity. Dated a girl who taught me the joys of exercise and movement and I&#x

Can you provide a reference for this? (I believe you, I would just love to read more about it)

Not an American, so perhaps I'm missing some nuance, but as an outsider looking in I find this comment perplexing. Am I correct in assuming the rioting looters and mostly peaceful protests comment refers to the BLM protests earlier thi

this holier than thou attitude really isn't helpful. And based on the fact that they estimate their runway runs out in August, they did have at or near 6 months of emergency funds saved up. Have some empathy please.

Hey Dan, no questions in particular, but this was a fascinating and hilarious look into the infancy of the internet. Kudos, my parents, and 13 year old me didn't get the internet til 1999, but this site certainly seemed to be ahead of

Perhaps the reason a large portion of the traffic is direct, social etc. is you're far better optimized in these areas. Based on your other comments it seems like you really know what you're doing in these spaces. I'm no expe

The metric analysis freelancer idea really spoke to me. Anyone with experience in this field have any suggestions for how one might break into this type of work? I'm always drawn to blog posts and the like that deal with metrics analysis bu
